THE SEPARATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF A DIMER OF CATECHIN OCCURRING IN BEER

A dimer of catechin has been separated from a number of ales, stouts and lagers. This compound has been shown to have the same structure as procyanidin B3, which has previously been isolated from plant sources. It can be conveniently synthesized from dihydroquercetin and catechin.
